About

Redbus invests in early stage ventures, predominantly in the UK.

Investment approach

Thesis
We invest our own permanent capital. We are not a traditional fund with fixed timelines. This allows us to take a long term view and be patient partners.Source (opens in a new tab)
Eligibility
We give every opportunity a fair review and prefer to begin by assessing a clear and concise pitch deck. We value warm introductions from within our network. If you know one of our portfolio founders or someone who knows us well, a trusted recommendation provides helpful context and enables us to engage quickly. If an introduction is not possible, we look for a clear explanation of why Redbus is the right partner for your business relative to other investors.
